Artificial Intelligence Detonating Fashion Textile Industry: AI X Fashion Across Infinite Possibilities

The nineteenth Shanghai International Textile Industry Exhibition (2019 Shanghai Textile Machinery Exhibition) was co sponsored by the Department of textiles and clothing, Hong Kong Polytech University. " The second International Conference on fashion and textile AI (abbreviation) AIFT 2019 In November 26th, the opening ceremony of the Himalaya Hotel in Shanghai was held. The three day meeting brought together more than thirty researchers in fashion textiles and more than 200 spectators at home and abroad to promote the integration of textile fashion and artificial intelligence. Many of them are very active in fashion textile companies, and have joined hands with the industry to promote the internationalization of textile technology.

Fashion and textile AI alliance formally established

Convergence of academic AI research elite

AIFT 2019 opening ceremony At the Himalaya Hotel in Shanghai, the conference announced the long-term cooperation with the ShanghaiTex 2019 Shanghai textile machinery exhibition and several colleges, including the Department of textile and clothing science, Hong Kong Polytech University, the Institute of information science and technology, Donghua University, the Institute of fashion and art design, the Ministry of education, the number of textile and garment engineering center of the Ministry of education, the clothing Institute of Wuhan Textile University, the Zhejiang Sci-Tech University Clothing Institute, the Xi'an Polytechnic University clothing and Art Design Institute, the Institute of garment art and engineering, the school of clothing design and engineering, the school of textile design and engineering, the Donghua Textile Institute, the textile and clothing engineering college, and jointly established the " Fashion and textile AI Alliance "The signing ceremony was held at the scene, attracting numerous media interviews.

Conforming to the needs of academics, researchers and practitioners, the establishment of the fashion and textile AI alliance is designed to become a platform conducive to the exchange of textile fashion AI information through a non-commercial organization. It runs through academic, supply, production, design, brand and other related practitioners, sharing resources and achieving a win-win situation.

The fashion and textile AI alliance hopes to achieve the following vision and contribute to the promotion of the textile and fashion industry's academic research and application in the AI field in the long run.

1) in line with the core value of "research, application and popularization", we link academic research and industry through the platform to find more AI's new applications and opportunities in the textile fashion industry.

2) promote academic research, run through the upstream and downstream (supply, production, brand), and popularize the education and application of AI in the industry.

3) based on China and facing the world, enhance the influence of fashion and textile artificial intelligence alliance.

4) focus on the industry's leading institutions and people, thereby promoting information exchange, popularizing the application of AI technology in the textile and fashion industry, and promoting the development of science and technology.

Expand AI's unlimited future in textile fashion

AIFT 2019 provides an open platform for researchers, engineers and people in the field of AI AI and fashion textiles, to explore how to work hand in hand towards "industry 4" and "new retail era". This year, three heavyweight keynote speakers were invited to focus on the theme and comprehensive analysis of the opportunities and challenges of artificial intelligence for textile and fashion industries.

Professor Cai Dacheng, Professor of computer science, National University of Singapore, Professor KITHCT First of all, for us. AI X Multimedia: Help fashion industry accelerate The theme introduces the latest development of artificial intelligence and multimedia, as well as the related research on fashion product search, style matching, content discovery and multi-mode recommendation. He also demonstrated the research on multimode fashion taxonomy, as well as its application in multimodal conversation system and fashion trend analysis, and finally discussed the future trend of AI in fashion applications.

Next Professor Ann Toomey, Dean of Department of textile design, Royal College of Art With " Soft system: Industry 4 redefines fashion "For the theme of the speech, we share the development of artificial intelligence in the fields of fashion, textile, advanced robotics, computer science, biological design and advanced materials.

Last Professor Zheng Yixiong, Professor, Department of textiles and clothing, Hongkong Polytechnic University, Professor Huang Weiqiang With " Artificial intelligence: The inevitable disruptive transformation of fashion textile industry The theme of the speech is not only for the various applications of artificial intelligence in fashion textiles, but also for the challenges and opportunities faced by technology.

Gathering international industry experts

Inventory of AI and intelligent textile production plan

In addition to the three keynote speeches, AIFT 2019 has invited papers from researchers in the global AI and fashion textile fields to invite them to comment on the basic theories, principles and technologies of AI, and their applications in fashion and textile fields. Finally, a total of more than 40 papers have been screened, and more than 30 experts from the United Kingdom, Hongkong, Singapore, Korea and China have published many topics on the application and technology of fashion textile AI. Many authors of the paper are held in the conference room of Shanghai New International Expo Center today and tomorrow. Original papers published 。 The thesis is divided into four categories: Basic research on artificial intelligence and fashion, artificial intelligence and textiles, wearable devices, human health modeling and artificial intelligence To gather diverse applications of fashion textile AI, and to develop new directions for fashion audiences.
